METHODS OF MANUFACTURE 19 be difficult to find one from which they are entirely absent, the same methods of manufacture were pursued, but almost every centre of production has certain local peculiarities of make and a predilection for certain classes of figures (Chapter IV.). By a very careful study of the rough figures excavated in any one locality we can determine the local types or type, because such rough figures are made on the spot, and it is not unreasonable to consider that finer statuettes of like type are likewise local work. As the result of such comparisons we are now in possession of a certain number of types of which we can speak unhesitatingly as Boeotian, Attic, Corinthian, etc., but it must be borne in mind that from all the most famous centres of production there was a regular export trade in moulds and statuettes, and that given the mould and skill in retouching, there was nothing to prevent a potter in Asia Minor from reproducing a Boeotian figure, local peculiarities and all, and in some cases it is impossible for even the most experienced eye to distinguish between the two unless there happens to be some unmistakable peculiarity in the clav used for the copy.
